Disclamer:
While every effort will be made to provide a working pool, ultimately the HOA is in charge of maintaining and fixing the pool and management can not be held responsible it happens to be under maintenance at the time of guests visit.
Guest access
You will receive a gate code before your arrival. You will need this to enter the parking lot. Feel free to park in any open parking space. No parking pass is needed.
You will also receive your door code in the same message ahead of time.
If you arrive early and would like to enjoy the beach or pool, feel free to park in the parking lot early. Beach access is just past the pool.
We apologize but we can not provide EARLY CHECK IN or LATE CHECK OUT. Our cleaners and handymen are working hard to make sure the unit is ready for you to enjoy upon your arrival and they need the ability to access the unit by 10 am on your check out day in order to do the same for the next guest. Thank you for your understanding.
Other things to note
This unit features beach access right from the pool area. It is easy to come and go from the beach multiple times a day with all of your gear. Put the kids down for a nap and enjoy the pool just a few feet away. The ocean water is a 690' walk from the pool through the sand.
This is O'Steen Public beach. The public beach access trail head is just down from the building but you will have PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS just off the pool through a gate exclusively for this complex. There is NO BEACH SERVICE at this beach. The blue chairs and umbrellas are only for the hotel guests. But just past the blue chairs you have access to the snorkeling cove PUBLIC BEACH between the last white box and the jetty. And if you want to continue walking on the sand, around the jetty, the public beach continues and there are waves to play in and seashells to find.
There are many restaurants to choose from within 10 minutes: Boshamps, Harbor Docks, McGuire’s, Rhumcay Island Grill, Coyote Ugly Saloon, AJ’s Seafood and Oyster Bar, Tailfins Waterfront Grill, Boat House Oyster Bar, Donut Hole Bakery, Jasmine Thai, Panera Bread, Bayou Bill's Crab House and so much more!
